Wow---great job BTW. There is no way I would have ever of guessed him. Now that is a pretty good trivia question.

If Kirisclown was here he would have gotten it instantly.

He is standing at Three Chimneys for $15k live foal. Not too bad of a price. He was very durable for a Storm Cat off spring.

I actually bet him in the Hollywood Derby. That was a race that the jockey, Bailey, had a LOT to do with winning. I guess you could say the same for the Manhattan.

Funny that Heavenly Prize, and Storm Cat, would win Grade 1s on the turf.

I had him in both races as well. Lost a small fortune on him in the Fayette Stakes.

Did Heavenly Prize or Storm Cat ever race on grass?

Yeah that Manhattan I loaded up on Relaxed Gesture. Looked beat around the turn, but came running well late. I believe Bailey rode the rail the entire way around, while Brice "I want to be in Mike Smith land" Blanc had Relaxed wide for much of the race. Now, I am not blaming Blanc, because I don't want to upset BBB, but Bailey won that race.

I bet Saint Stephen....he sucked.

Relaxed Gesture ( and that idiot Bris Blanc ) was tons the best.

Relaxed Gesture was the best in many of his races that he didnt win.
